 Help with Orange Carnation We have an orange carnation in our tank and it doesn't seem to want to expand. Our tank is established, we feed cyclopeze and we have it covered (so as not to expose it to too much light). Any suggestions on how to help this coral?  |

| Re: Help with Orange Carnation Thanks for all of the advice! I've been feeding microvert in the AM and cyclopeze in the PM every day for a week now and guess what?!?!? My orange carnation is blooming and opened up. It looks better than when we bought it at our LFS! Let me know if you want pics. Thanks again!! |
